MANUU Certificate Urdu through Hindi FAQs
Ques. I am a Hindi speaker with no knowledge of Urdu script. Can I still join this course, and will I be able to cope with the curriculum?
Ans. Yes, this course is specifically designed for Hindi-speaking learners who have no prior knowledge of Urdu. The entire instruction is delivered in Hindi, and the curriculum starts from the very basics of Urdu script (Nastaliq alphabet), progressing to reading, writing, and basic conversational skills. Since Hindi and Urdu share a common spoken base, most learners find the transition relatively smooth. The university also provides printed Self-Learning Material (SLM) in Hindi to support self-paced study, so even working professionals can manage the coursework effectively.
Ques. Is this course available online or only at the MANUU Hyderabad campus?
Ans. The Certificate in Proficiency in Urdu through Hindi (Part Time) is a regular, campus-based part-time programme offered at the MANUU main campus in Gachibowli, Hyderabad. It is not available in distance or online mode. Students are required to attend classes at the campus. If you are looking for a distance mode option, MANUU's CDOE (Centre for Distance and Online Education) offers the Certificate of Proficiency in Urdu through English in distance mode, but the Hindi-medium version is only available in the regular part-time mode at the Hyderabad campus.
Ques. What is the minimum qualification required, and is there any age limit for admission?
Ans. The minimum qualification required for this course is passing Class 10 (Matriculation) or equivalent from any recognised board. There is no upper age limit for admission, making it open to working professionals, homemakers, retirees, and anyone interested in learning Urdu through Hindi. Admission is purely merit-based on the qualifying examination marks, and no entrance test is conducted.
Ques. What career or professional benefits does this certificate offer?
Ans. Proficiency in Urdu through Hindi opens several professional avenues. Government employees working in Urdu-speaking regions or in central government departments dealing with Urdu correspondence find this certificate particularly useful. Journalists, media professionals, teachers in Urdu-medium schools, translators, and those working in the legal or administrative sectors in states like Telangana, Uttar Pradesh, Bihar, and Jammu & Kashmir benefit significantly. The certificate from MANUU, a Central University, is nationally recognised and adds value to one's academic and professional profile.
Ques. How is the examination conducted, and what happens if I cannot complete the course in 6 months?
Ans. The examination is conducted by MANUU at the end of the course term. Students need to submit their examination forms and pay the examination fee (approximately Rs. 150-200 per paper) before the exam. The course has a flexible duration policy: the minimum duration is 6 months, but students can extend their study period up to a maximum of 2 years. This means if a student is unable to complete or clear the examination in the first attempt, they can re-register and continue for up to 2 years from the date of initial admission without losing their enrolled status.
Ques. Is there any difference between the Certificate in Proficiency in Urdu through Hindi and the Certificate in Proficiency in Urdu through English offered by MANUU?
Ans. Yes, the key difference lies in the medium of instruction. The Certificate in Proficiency in Urdu through Hindi uses Hindi as the language of instruction and explanation, making it ideal for Hindi-speaking learners. The Certificate in Proficiency in Urdu through English uses English as the medium and is suited for English-medium background students. Both courses teach Urdu script, grammar, vocabulary, and communication skills, but the approach and target audience differ. The Hindi-medium version is offered as a part-time regular programme at the MANUU campus, while the English-medium version is also available through MANUU's CDOE in distance mode.
